## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent school and staff!: We moved to Waltham Cross last year and after researching local schools, we chose Goffs-Churchgate Academy. My child has settled in well and the teachers are incredibly supportive. The school's values of Respect, Aspire, Nurture, and Achieve are really noticeable in the students' attitude and behavior. I'm so glad we made the right choice! *(Sep 2023)*
- **2/5** — Goffs academy treats the students year 11-8: all they do is shout at the students without even trying to help or actually find out what the problem is they pick and choose favourites and 90% of the teachers are just damn right rude for no reason the students get told to shut up and there’s a 1 particular teacher that swears and the students it’s just disgusting how there getting treated like robots there humans all because the teachers are better than the students it’s embarrassing you all need to change *(Jun 2023)*
- **4/5** — Great school with a positive atmosphere: We've been impressed with Goffs-Churchgate Academy since our child started. The school's focus on individual support and the Anti-Bullying program have given us peace of mind. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the staff are friendly and approachable. We're confident our child is in good hands. *(Nov 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some good, some areas for improvement: We moved away from the area, but our child attended Goffs-Churchgate Academy for a few years. While the school has many strengths, such as a strong sense of community and a commitment to student wellbeing, there were some issues with communication and support during their GCSE year. Overall, it was a good experience, but I think the school could improve in a few areas. *(Mar 2022)*
